1st visit to Grandma's

Grandma rolled out the red carpet for our little man

1st time at church

This picture cracks us up. Mason looks thrilled. This was at the end of the day and he was ready to go home. It was soooo nice being back at church.

Greg was my minister of music when I was growing up. He's so sweet with Mason. We're already prepping him for the choir. :)
Mason loves Miss Karen. Karen has been a wonderful friend and mentor to me. She was in my wedding and now gets to bond with my little man.

Karen in this pic was my preschool friend. We've known each other since age 4. It's so fun to have our kids meet.

Mason's first Haircut

I bet you've never met a one month old with a stylin haircut. Thank you Gin for making our little man look so cute. Talaiya was a huge help to keep Mason still while her mommy cut his hair. Talaiya is so sweet with Mason. She made him an adorable art project for his room. He loves his friend.

4th of July at All Children's Hospital

We had a great fourth of July weekend. Kevin's family was in town and Mason loved meeting his cousins. We had a cookout in the afternoon with friends and family. Then that evening we made a quick trip to All Children's. Mason had an infection on the outside of his incision. Everything was fine and we were able to treat it without any big deal. The great news is he is up to 9lbs. 7 oz. He's measuring 22 1/4 inches. He's growing and gaining. On our way home from the hospital we were able to see all the fireworks from St. Pete to Tampa. We had a great holiday weekend!

Mason in the Teachers Lounge

We had fun visiting with several teachers that I worked with this year. Meghan and I were pregnant together. We taught next door to each other and took frequent bathroom breaks. :) Brody was born in April and we're excited for the boys to play together.

Mason with his cousins Zach and Cameron.

Gabe and Rebekah were in town this week! Beka and I have been great friends since highschool. The three of us went to Liberty together as well. We love seeing their family and I was thrilled that Mason was able to meet them. Mason had a Neurology appointment this week. We didn't learn anything new but we're encouraged that Mason is doing everything a newborn should be doing. The next big information will be when the Genetics testing comes back. Please continue to be in prayer over the test results. We try not to think about it but it will be a difficult appointment to attend. Kevin's brother and family will be visiting for the Fourth weekend. We can't wait to post pictures of Mason and his cousins. Thank you to all the men and women who have served our country and continue to serve. We love you and are so proud of you. God Bless America!!

Kennedy was so sweet with Mason.

Mason's First Week Home

We've had a great week home. We feel like we're all getting to know each other. We are enjoying the lack of sleep and amazing diapers :). Mason has had fun getting to see all the people that have been praying for him. Yesterday, we were not able to get the MRI. We waited for 2 hours and the doctor decided that we would wait until his 3 month appointment. The shunt is working and his head has gone down. Talking with the doctor yesterday, we learned about the good and bad of his shunt. We feel more educated with what we learned. Monday we meet with Neurology. They will help us with Mason's development and ways to help him. We will continue posting information as we receive it. Pray you're having a great week. Love you all, Wendy
